That seems a quite long run to clear out the smoke in a 75 deg cold startup. my 93 which has profuse blow by and just plain worn out engine will only puff smoke a couple seconds. seems like maybe injectors are leaking down into the cylinders overnight? I'm told that 75 degrees and the...

Glad you found it! curiosity has me wondering what that blown fuse was labeled as. take the old one out and verify if it's a normal speaker or some oddball that GM uses. you can use an ohm meter to check if it's a 2, 4, 8 ohm. if it's a sub, 4 and 8 ohm are available new, its the 2ohm that...

Possibly, idk what power wattage a factory amp is, but most aftermarket amps use a fairly hefty fuse. I would double check all the fuses, engine bay and in the cab. I have see where simple fuses like one for the cig lighter blown caused other things not to work that weren't on the diagram...

There isn't a separate fuse for the amp possibly? other than that, I was thinking that maybe one of the audio channels from the stereo might be shorted from a possible crossed wire at the splices. it is possible that if one channel is shorted, the stereo or amp can disable both rear. I...

I've been studying your post and looking at this metra diagram, did you extend the factory harness or snip the factory connector from the dash? I feel like the issue is something is crossed on the factory harness side. here is a pic on the metra connector showing the colors and pin...

is it just me or am I seeing your boost gauge sitting at about 8psi with your key just on?

There has to be something with the wiring, maybe the adapter is not pinned correctly. I will do some searching on the web and see what I can find. it's got to be something simple.

I am curious how your setup is with the type of turbo you have and how the CDR tubing is plumbed up. most have the tube from the CDR going right into the intake just past the air filter and before the turbo. side note, if there is not much blow by but oil is getting pulled into the...

did you spill oil or something on the manifolds causing the smoke? Yes Ak is right, pull the tube that comes from the CDR into your air intake and cap it off. then do the blow by test. when you pull off the tube if there is oil in it then that is how the oil is getting into the intake...

your getting oil in the intake? how much blow by does the engine have? if none, then you might possible have turbo seals going south which could be bad for the engine! if it's blow by, look into adding a provent 200 oil catch can. my 93 puffs blow by like a locomotive and blow oil out...

Yes sir. you can also to test, iirc apply 12+ to the pink and see if suddenly you have boom booms LOL. check with a test light on the blue wire to confirm when you turn on the stereo that blue wire goes 12+.

put out the search for one here in the forums. most of us stash a small hoard of parts. one of the guys here might have one in good shape! If I do end up scrapping this engine, your welcome to the crossover, but again it's not in the greatest conditions but works.

single thermostat or the dual? are there any local pick-a-part salvage yards in your area? you might be able to find one out there. I have part of one for the dual stats. and one single stat crossover that's on an engine I have, haven't decided if I will be doing anything with the...

any time! were all here to help one another. I'm sure others will chime in soon once they see the thread. Ive only been wrenching on these 6.5's for about 5 years now or something like that. I myself have learned loads from the guys here. feel free to poke around here in the forums and...

Well not on the truck, but the wife's trailblazer had catastrophe strike this evening! she was out running errands and calls me... says the temp gauge was at 260 and the battery light was on!!!! I about had a heart attack, told her to shut it down NOW!!! her response was but I'm on my...

Look at the link for the radio diagrams I posted starting on page 271. shows the actual connectors for everything and each pin and wire color for what they are for. for premium sound on page 274 connector C1 for the radio, pin 8 is pink for signal to the amp to turn on. connect the blue wire...

Looks like if it has one, its under the dash.

is there a relay for the amp in the panel with all the other relays? I have not looked up the location for it. the blue wire on the stereo simply energizes that relay to turn on the amp.

if you install a switch to prime or run the LP manually, you will need to add a one way diode at the end of the wire going to the GP controller so your not powering your GP's when you use the switch. that switch is very handy for things like replacing the fuel filter and you need to get the air...

from what I can see, yes, but could still have a factory amp. you also have 6 or 7 speakers. 7th one would be inside the center console.
